[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 8,053 votes, 2.4× the 3,396-vote margin.

    8,053 ÷ 3,396 = 2.4

  2. The top two polled 64.9% of votes; the other 4 candidates 35.1% between them.

    (14,943 + 11,547) ÷ 40,786 = 64.9% · 14,296 ÷ 40,786 = 35.1%

  3. Turnout of 66.5% was 1.1 pp below the state's median seat (67.6%).

    66.5 − 67.6 = −1.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.9 pp in 1962 to 8.3 pp.

    8.3 − 8.9 = −0.6 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: IND in 1962, INC in 1967.
